Resilience isn’t just a technical challenge — it’s a financial one. From flood protection to cooling infrastructure, someone pays the bill. But who should? This session explores public, private, and hybrid financing models through a justice lens. We’ll look at how resilience investments impact rents, property taxes, insurance costs, small businesses, and frontline families. Join experts, community organizations, and financial innovators to discuss how we fund a safer city without leaving vulnerable neighborhoods behind.
